#' @title Arrow scalars
#' @usage NULL
#' @format NULL
#' @docType class
#'
#' @description A `Scalar` holds a single value of an Arrow type.
#'
#' @section Factory:
#' The `Scalar$create()` factory method instantiates a `Scalar` and takes the following arguments:
#' * `x`: an R vector, list, or `data.frame`
#' * `type`: an optional [data type][data-type] for `x`. If omitted, the type will be inferred from the data.
#' @section Usage:
#'
#' ```
#' a <- Scalar$create(x)
#' length(a)
#'
#' print(a)
#' a == a
#' ```
#'
#' @section Methods:
#'
#' - `$ToString()`: convert to a string
#' - `$as_vector()`: convert to an R vector
#' - `$as_array()`: convert to an Arrow `Array`
#' - `$Equals(other)`: is this Scalar equal to `other`
#' - `$ApproxEquals(other)`: is this Scalar approximately equal to `other`
#' - `$is_valid`: is this Scalar valid
#' - `$null_count`: number of invalid values - 1 or 0
#' - `$type`: Scalar type
#' - `$cast(target_type, safe = TRUE, options = cast_options(safe))`: cast value
#'     to a different type
#'
#' @name Scalar
#' @rdname Scalar-class
#' @examples
#' Scalar$create(pi)
#' Scalar$create(404)
#' # If you pass a vector into Scalar$create, you get a list containing your items
#' Scalar$create(c(1, 2, 3))
